- Rich Plum Colour
- Suitable for zones 5 - 10
- Very good disease resistance
- Mild fruity fragrance
A telescope is no longer required to view the dark purple shades of a galaxy from your own backyard - you can see them with your own eyes when admiring the mystical colours of Celestial Night. The out-of-this-world deep plum purple is the most challenging colour to attain in the rose breeding world. Combining disease resistance and vigour to that coloration makes it almost a supernatural achievement! The flowers of Celestial Night are not simply divine in their enigmatic colour, which lasts and lasts, but also for their style, with a constellation of petals arranged in a quartered style making the blooms look old-fashioned and cuppy. This heavenly rose also reaches for the stars when it comes to flowering performance. If you're a fan of this colour, look no further as Celestial Night is sky-high above the competition, making it the very best of its kind!
Bred from the popular Ebb Tide, Celestial Night is a wonderfully improved version of its parentage with great disease resistance. Its blooms are plum purple with raspberry reverse and globular, old-fashioned, cuppy & very double. Celestial Night has an abundance of big, double-ruffled blooms of deep plum-purple on a hardy, rounded plant. With medium to dark green, glossy leather foliage, this floribunda grows up to 4 ft tall and has a spread of up to 3 ft.
